Great day at the annual Oakleigh South Primary Fete. Always highlight on the calendar with so much to see and do. Heaps of stalls, rides and entertainment.

Terrific to join my colleagues and Dylan Alcott for the Mazenod Panthers Good for Footy Launch.

The Panthers are an all abilities AFL team playing at Central Reserve, Glen Waverley.

Great people doing great work to build a greater community. 🙌

Today I’m up in Sydney for an Australian Local Government Association Board meeting with Directors from all around the country.

Amongst other things we had a Federal election advocacy debrief, passed the annual budget for 24/25, considered our risk and compliance, discussed cybersecurity and looked at our climate adaption modelling in the lead up to our national conference in June.

A long day - hopefully home by 10pm 🙌

They shall grow not old,
as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun
and in the morning
We will remember them.

🐣 Easter Monday. End of a long weekend. Couldn’t be bothered cooking, so took a walk down to @binnyz_pizzacafe at the corner of Atherton, Dandenong and Huntingdale Roads.

🍕 Deeeeeelicious. Generous toppings, tasty cheese, friendly staff and amazing ice cream to wash it down. They also serve early morning coffee.

👉 Pop down and support local 🙌

The calm before the storm. How lucky are we to have such a magnificent local pool?

We almost didn’t. Council planned to shut this famous local institution 20 years ago, but it was saved by local residents and ratepayers in a massive community campaign.

What are your favourite memories?

The rain has done, the ground is dry and the sun has arrived and we’ve just kicked off. It is a tad windy though, so bring a jacket and head down to Warrawee Park for the annual Live at Warrawee.

What a cracking day to celebrate lunar new year.

This year it’s the year of the one and only animal I genuinely fear - the disgusting, ugly slithering snake 🐍🤮

It’s no longer part of the area I represent, but Notting Hill always holds a special place in my heart. It’s an area I’ve spent a lot of time focussing on in my time on Council.

Today we visited the Community Laneways, an initiative from @nottinghillnh where locals have painted hundreds of paintings that adorn the walls of the laneway between Samada and Saniky Streets.

Well worth a visit. The new neighbourhood park is at the end of the laneway as an added bonus.

I am a very lucky man 😍

A belated Happy New Year to all. I’ve been away, but I am now back on deck and ready for a big year ahead, delivering on the commitments I made during the recent Council elections.

36 years ago, 24 people made the ultimate sacrifice at Nakatomi. May their courage and resilience live on, even in the face of impossible odds.

Yippee-ki-yay, heroes.

A pleasure to join Neighbourhood Watch Monash Inc. to celebrate the exceptional service of a local legend, Senior Constable Sara Coe from Monash Police.

Sara does an extraordinary job working in Crime Prevention and community education, and is based right here in Oakleigh.

It’s been a privilege to work alongside her for the last six years - we’re extremely lucky to have her.
